Thanks!

I thought the blue one was VGA though?

I think the yellow port is a MIDI connector, the blue is VGA yes.

Your'e right, Midi/game port. It's a "D" socket and the cable covered it, that's my excuse

If you have to ask..

If you have to ask you probably arent using them. So dont worry unless you are diggin up a dot matrix printer.
